I'm sorry to hear about the stress you are under at work. That is no fun, especially on top of everything else.
I hope you have a chance to relax and recharge while the kids are away. I've had a few of these long-ish breaks, now, and at first I bawled when she left with stbx. Now, I just feel sad for a bit, and then try to be productive and, more importantly, enjoy the free time. Hope you can do that, too.
